Groove Groove should find the front with Asameshimae and Summer Park on his heels. ASAMESHIMAE (2) has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing third last time when he was handy all the way over 1400m at this track. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. MAGIC EMILIA (5) could only manage seventh two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1400m at Sonoda, beaten 3 lengths after being in the firing line on the turn. Finds the right race this time and can get the job done. SUMMER PARK (1) started at $3.10 last time and ran below expectations, finishing seventh and beaten 10 lengths at this track over 800m. Hard to beat in this suitable race. EL GRAN GOLAZO (6) returned from a spell two weeks ago when he was beaten 7 lengths into fourth over 1500m at this track. Fitter this time will prove harder to beat.
